Afternic.com Receives ICANN Registrar Accreditation

Quote:Afternic.com, a recognized leader in the aftermarket domain name industry, today announced it has received acceptance to become a registrar by the Internet Corporation for Assigned Names and Numbers (ICANN), the overseeing body for domain names.

"Afternic.com long has been one of the central exchanges in the aftermarket purchase and sale of domain names -- it is, and remains, our core business," said Roger Collins, the company's president and chief executive officer. "We do not foresee that changing in any way and, in fact, believe our new status as ICANN-accredited registrar enhances that standing. Instead, Afternic.com's new designation formalizes our relationship with this all-important governing organization and will enable the company to participate actively -- and at the highest levels -- in key issues and oversight matters regarding the future of domain names."
